I wanted to give 5 stars however the Wi-Fi wasn't working, parking is limited, the bathroom door doesn't close all the way, and the room had a different smell. The A/C works very well, the flow of the water is a bit weak but the hot and cold shower works. Booked at the 2nd floor facing the road, the noise of motorists is tolerable. Highly recommend this place for comfortable bed, location close to Siliman University and reasonable priced.

This is my probably my fourth or fifth stay with Grand Pensionne Plaza and I'm very happy to say…read moreit's as good as I remembered. I opted for a family room at php1100.00 and I was super surprised that the room was HUGE! It had a ref, a queen-sized, and twin-sized bed, and a huge bathroom! I love that the a/c is strong and that the room has a 32-inch wall-mounted TV. The bedsheets smell freshly laundried and the pillows are soft and sufficiently plump. The frontdesk people are polite and they really go out of their way to help you feel right at home. The hotel is also conveniently located near downtown and a short walk away from banks and restaurants. Wifi is strong too! I'd definitely recommend this hotel to travellers who want to have a good night's sleep on a budget. Thank you Grand Pensionne Plaza Hotel for another awesome stay. :).

Disappointing stay at Hennan Tawala. Chose this place because it mentioned kids stay free, the pool…read morelooked inviting in pictures and thought we were allowed to visit the other Hennan pools in the same compound but were we wrong! Hennan Tawala pool appears large but is actually 4 pools divided in 4 sections that doesn't even connect. Our room was far from the beach and still had some walking distance. Had issues connecting my devices to their WiFi. The pool water was cold. They have 2 jacuzzis but all had cold water too. This place charge more than the other hotels in the area for sub-par service. I was charged extra for my 8year old who is considered an adult in their perspective. We were also charged extra for towels we never redeemed. This place will find every reason to charge their customers extra. They will charge you extra if you try to bring food from outside to your room too. I must say the best part of our stay was breakfast & the worst part was the extra charges, cold showers, cold water, and COLD treatment from their manager specifically the front staff/manager Jonabelle when trying to reason regarding extra charges. This place was definitely EXTRA (charges) and so OVER-rated. Not too kid friendly as they charged extra for 6years and older. They do not offer anything for the kids except to take a dip in their frigid pools. We will not be returning nor will we recommend. Save yourself the money & headache because the pictures shown on their sites are all just sugar coating. Note:. Had I known Hennan Tawala would be so shady, we wouldn't have stayed there at all. we are getting far better treatment, shown more honesty, and feel more relaxed at a 3 star actual beachfront hotel in Panglao. Do better Hennan Tawala!!

Well, this time I went for broke at Henann and rented a Villa that had a private mini pool and…read morepatio. The Villa has extra security and a cart service to drive you around the resort. It is not located on the beach, but it's in the center of the resort. You have three Henann hotels here's side by side. The service here at At Henann Alona, I think, is much better than any of the Henanns that I've stayed at in Boracay. The main negative here is that if you stayed at Henann before, you know they have some of the worst non-HD flat screen TV's of any major hotel chain in the Philippines. Also, the lighting in the bathroom is in need of more brightness at the mirrors, especially if you need to be looking at yourself shaving. Other than that, I think having a mini pool I didn't have to share was a plus.

Our rooms (we booked two) are beautiful, comfortable, and pretty clean! The amenities are great, especially the free ones! And although we didn't make use of all of the free resort activities, I'm sure it would've been fun! The gym is decently sized, the pools are beautiful and warm water, the wash up showers outside are stocked, the secret beach is a plus, the Alina beach is literally walking distance, and their free breakfast buffet is sooooo good! Wish I could go back soon, highly recommend!

Upon getting there, they give you welcome drinks and some moist towel to freshen up. We had the Jr Suite, and it was spacious. The room came with a welcome fruit basket (with 2 sweet mangoes and banana) and a bottle of water that they always change. The staff are excellent, which makes me proud to be a filipino. The facility is well kept, updated, and clean. The Saffron Restaurant offers good food which we got to try throughout our stay. Some items on the menu are meh and some were good. We also went for a massage at the Sea Tree Spa. The massage was relaxing. They worked on our backs and felt relieved after. Overall, we will be back. It was a good first stay at Amorita. I HIGHLY recommend this resort to anyone wanting to go to Bohol

This place is great!…read more We came here many times in just a few days... should have just rented a room here (1300 php for 2-people, 1600 php for 4-people) but they were sold out when we arrived. (Call ahead for availability and current pricing.) The rooms are cool. They have a downstairs and upstairs loft area for bedding. Fan only, but the ocean breeze is all ya need. ;-) Good bathrooms. The main draw here is the variety of craft beer and drinks. We love the dragonfruit beer. LoL Their IPA and Juicy Double Dry Hop are also very popular. They are working up to 12-taps and also have infused liquor, coffee drinks, cock and mocktails, and sodas. The food is fantastic and fresh. We tried many things, the breakfast bowl with egg and potato, the shrimp tacos with coleslaw and creamy sriracha, and the carnitas taco with salsa (spicy). They were all delicious. They also have oatmeal and peanut butter options, if you're looking for healthy eats. Eric and Ellen run the place and they are both so nice. Eric is the social half and interesting to talk to. He has really strong eco-friendly POVs. :-) The environment there is perfect, too. They have a great ocean view and comfy swing up front. Check them out for Taco Tuesday's, if you want a taco for 80php. Other things are promo'd that night, too! Might see ya there!

A grand resort vacation indeed! My family had a memorable three days-two nights at one of their 19…read moreexclusive and luxurious residential type villas. Four of us siblings stayed at the grand villa while my brother and his wife stayed at the dream villa, just across the man made lagoon from us. These lagoons surround all the villas. Each villa had high standard furnishings, and a terrace that leads to a lagoon. Our Grand Villa had two bedrooms, one with a king bed downstairs and two twin beds upstairs, each with a huge well-appointed bathrooms, and a large family room and a kitchenette complete with a refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, plates and utensils. Just as soon as we were settled in, after check-in, fresh juice in a real coconut along with a welcome platter of snacks was delivered to our respective villas. Snack plates were delivered to us every day. The entire resort is surrounded with lush vegetation, lots of flowers and remarkable landscaping. We had lunch at one of their five restaurants, this one with a cozy ambiance just a short walk from our villas with views of larger pools and the ocean. Lunch consisted of traditional Filipino dishes which were not only well presented but were delicious as expected of a top rated resort as well. The room service dinner we had was no different. We then explored the scenic white sand beach with a great view of the ocean. I actually spent some alone time in one of the many lounge chairs under the trees. Just like BE resort in Mactan, Cebu, the best feature of this resort are the tireless, friendliest, professional, helpful and most efficient people that worked there, specially the resort manager, Pearl Yang and staff member Uriel and others who we were lucky enough to be attended too, or who gave us a friendly hi. Thank you for pampering us!. We never had to wait long for anything we requested. I had high expectations when we planned this trip, and BE Grand resort not only surpassed all of them, we got more: we were treated like royalty!
